Join Dr. Jeremy Kirchman, Curator of Birds and Mammals at the New York State Museum, for a guided tour through the Birds of New York gallery celebrating the intersection of science and art. In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, this special program highlights the extraordinary watercolor paintings of Louis Agassiz Fuertes, a pioneering ornithologist and illustrator of Puerto Rican descent whose vivid works continue to inspire bird lovers and scientists alike. Discover the stories behind Fuertes’s travels, techniques, and legacy, and explore how his contributions helped shape both the field of ornithology and the museum’s historic Birds of New York publication. Don’t miss this opportunity to experience Fuertes’s illustrations up close and learn about the remarkable birds that call New York home.
